As soon as they got out of the door, Selina began to question him with her eyes.
Luke just went back to his desk and grabbed his clothes and bag, "Come on, let's go out and look for some clues."
Selina: “Huh?”
Luke patted the files in his hands: "Isn't there a new case?"
Selina: ... Well, you're going out to look for clues in a case you haven't even looked at! This is such a crude and rude statement.
Sonya, who was not far away, saw the two people leaving and gave them a questioning look.
Luke walked by her desk and looked at the information on her computer screen. He nodded slightly and said, "Just do it first. Wait a few days. Maybe it will come in handy."
Sonya nodded to show that she understood.
The two were about to leave when Lisa coughed lightly, stood up and walked over.
Luke looked at her expression and went over to her: “Lisa, what’s the matter?”
Elizabeth smiled awkwardly and whispered, "I just received a call. My mother and others will be here in the next two days."
Luke didn't care too much and said casually, "No problem, I'll take care of the food and lodging."
Elizabeth: "... Not that. I've already found a place for them. Chris, didn't you say you needed to talk to him alone about something? I'm telling you in advance so you can make it."
Luke slapped his forehead.
Elizabeth certainly knew how busy their group had been in recent days.
Roger and Martin's sudden vacation made the three teams on Elsa's side busy with work, and even Sonya's team was helping to handle the case.
Elizabeth's reminder is very necessary.
At least Luke didn't take Chris's matter too seriously.
Whether you succeed or fail, it’s just a matter of a little money.
However, when Elizabeth mentioned this, Luke simply called her over and walked to the parking lot together.
It was not until they got in the car, with Luke and Elizabeth sitting in the back seat and Selina sitting in the passenger seat, that he said, "Lisa, do you have money? For example, personal savings that you can use at will."
Elizabeth was surprised, but she didn't hesitate. She smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Where can I get the money from? I haven't even paid off my college loan yet."
Luke understood.
Studying at a good university in the United States is not an easy thing. The tuition fees range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of US dollars.
For a kid like Elizabeth who comes from a small town and whose mother Samantha is not rich, it is inevitable that she will owe a lot of college loans when going to college.
This is also an invisible divider.
To a large extent, it can allow the children of rich people to continue to excel and the children of poor people to continue to be workers.
Perhaps, there are many losers and degenerates among the children of rich people, and there are also top talents among the children of poor people who are gifted and can overcome difficulties to become successful.
But enough money can minimize the probability of both happening, making the chance of rich people's children succeeding n times that of poor people's children.
This is one of the reasons why the strong get stronger and the weak get weaker.
Luke thought for a moment and said, "Then how about this..."
He stated a thought and both Elizabeth and Selina stared at him in amazement.
After a moment, Elizabeth couldn't help but ask: "Why...?"
Luke coughed lightly: "Because, I am very optimistic about you."
After these words were spoken, the two women looked very strange.
Looking at the expressions of the two women, he raised his hands helplessly to apologize: "Okay, I said the wrong thing, it's too easy to cause misunderstanding. To put it simply, if this thing succeeds, you will also have a share of the credit. But we are colleagues, so I can only go around in circles to compensate you."
Elizabeth still shook her head: "You saved my whole family, so I should owe you a favor. So..."
Luke chuckled and interrupted her: "No, I have my own considerations for this matter. You just need to do your best to complete this proposal, understand?"
Elizabeth was extremely conflicted, but under his gaze, she could hardly bear it: "Okay, fine. But I can't guarantee that it will succeed."
Luke opened the car door and got out: "It better be successful. I trust Samantha more than Chris."
Elizabeth was surprised: "What?" Does this have to do with trusting Chris again
However, Luke had already gotten off the car, obviously ordering him to leave.
She could only get out of the car and watch Luke get in the driver's seat, wave goodbye to her, and drive away.
Elizabeth frowned and slowly walked back to the office.
Many thoughts ran through her mind.
Thinking over Luke's words from beginning to end, especially the last sentence, made her connect certain things. She widened her eyes and murmured, "Could it be because of that mine..."
Having said that, she subconsciously shut up.
This matter is the same as Luke said, it's a bit sensitive. If it's not necessary, it's best not to say a word.
Her heart was in a mess and she returned to the office as if sleepwalking.
Selina was in the car, glancing at Luke: "What do you think?"
Luke looked at Lu and said casually, "The cooperation with Chris will be the business of Cosmic Cube Technology Co., Ltd. What do you think?"
Selina didn't understand at once. After a moment's thought, she pointed at herself and said, "You mean I have a share?"
Luke nodded: "Yes, you are the second largest shareholder of the company, holding 5% of the shares."
Selina: "… You're just bragging. I believed you and exchanged 200,000 for shares of a small workshop that does handicrafts."
Luke was silent for a moment, then said, "How about I give you some more shares. But if you don't want to be a policeman then, you can be a supervisor in the company."
Selina was confused: "What is a supervisor?"
Luke: "Probably, similar to the Internal Affairs Department of our police department, which is responsible for supervising and investigating internal members of the company."
Selina shook her head in disdain: "I don't want such a disgusting job. You can keep the shares for yourself. I don't want them."
Luke hummed, thought for a moment, and said, "That's fine. By the way, I'll ask Ginny to help me find a few colleges that allow students to study while working, and... ahem, it's easier to graduate. How about you sign up?"
Selina's face dropped. "You're not? I still have to train."
Luke chuckled, slowly parked the car to the side of the road, leaned over, and whispered something in Selina's ear.
She lost her voice: "Can you really do this?"
Luke nodded: "Yes, but this is something that only the two of us know about. Do you understand? If other people know about it, you and I will be in big trouble."
Selina laughed, put her arm around his head, and kissed his cheek: "Thank you, dear, you are so considerate. Hehe, why didn't I meet you in middle school."
Luke rolled his eyes: "Come on, I didn't start high school until you graduated, okay!"
When they got home, Selina went to train first. Luke took out his phone, called Bobby, and told him about the reception.
